Beautiful Raw Clear Quartz
An impressive piece of raw, clear quartz from South Africa. This highly translucent section reflects light from almost every angle.
In its purest form, quartz is colourless and transparent. Despite being one of the most abundant minerals on the planet, it has intrigued and fascinated humans for thousands of years.
The name 'quartz' is believed to have come from the old German word 'quarz', which first appeared in 1530. In Ancient Greece, it was known as 'krustallos' from the word 'kruos' meaning 'icy cold'.
Unique and surprisingly tactile, this quartz mineral was carefully chosen for our collection of rocks and minerals.
